3.Some high school students think it useless to receive higher education.Therefore,they choose not to go to college.If you're one of them,think again.Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.
Schools and universities are the first places to get knowledge.We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation.More knowledge will be gained after you start working,but without education,that job will not be within easy reach.Knowledge leads to knowledge.
While limited within the walls of the educational places,we openly explore other cultures of the world!We come to know that ours is not the only culture.Other cultures have valuable things to share,enriching our own.Education also makes us want to travel and exchange with various cultures,getting more experience.
When there's a
recession in the economy(經(jīng)濟(jì)),those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skills set.The more education you have,the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.
When you're skillful and knowledgeable,you gain access to people of similar backgrounds and tastes.It means a good education leads to excellent networking.Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.
A good education makes you a more interesting person.You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what's on sale in stores.An educated person doesn't gossip(說閑話),having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.
